Adventure in Hoenn

They followed me as I walked out of the restaurant, and headed towards my old school. When we got there I said, "This is the pokemon battle school where kids learn about pokemon." "Yeah yeah. Let's go to the gym now." Rainbow Dash said.

"Wait." I said, heading into the school. They followed me as I walked, looking at the classrooms. Finally we got one to where a woman in a blue top was in front of the class, talking to them. She looked this way, and noticed me.

She motioned for me to come in, and then everyone looked this way. I opened the door, and entered the classroom. "Hello Gabriel." she greeted me. "Hello Roxanne." I greeted her back. "Class, this is Gabriel. He was one of my best students here." she told the class.

"Ah I wasn't that good." I said, embarrassed. "What are those pokemon?" asked one student. "Long story short they're actually pokemon trainers." I told them. "Alright class, why don't we take a recess." Roxanne said.

"Yay!" they all shouted in unison, running out of the door. When they were all outside Roxanne turned to me. "I suppose you came here for a badge right?" she asked. I nodded, and she asked, "Would you mind if the kids watched? It would be a good experience for them."

"Sure." I said. "Wait, so the gym leader's a teacher?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Yeah." I said. "Let's go outside." she said. I nodded, and we followed her out. "Oh I almost forgot." I said, taking out 4 cases from my backpack.

"What are those?" asked Twilight. "These three are badge cases." I said, handing one to Rainbow Dash, Pinkie, and Applejack. "And this one is a ribbon case." I said, handing it to Rarity. "They're for when you win gym badges, or pokemon contests." I said.

We stopped where the kids were playing with some pokemon. "Alright listen up class!" Roxanne called. All of the kids suddenly gathered around us. "Me and Gabriel are going to have a gym battle." she announced. There were cheers of excitement from everyone.

"Alright, now we're heading to the gym." she said. More cheers as we followed her to a large building. We entered to find a white rectangle with rocks in it. The perfect arena for a rock type gym leader. As we got into place everyone else sat on the benches.

"We'll have a two on two battle. If you beat both of my pokemon you'll get the stone badge." Roxanne said. "I know." I said. "Go geodude!" she called out, throwing her pokeball, making a geodude come out. "What's that?" asked Twilight, looking at her pokedex. " rest it looks just like a rock. Carelessly stepping on it will make it swing it's fists angrily." said the pokedex.

"Alright Blaze you're up." I said. "You're using torchic? But I thought fire was weak against rock." asked a baffled Twilight. "It is, but there's more to a battle, than type matchups." I told her. "Geodude use rollout." Roxanne told her pokemon.

Geodude curled up into a ball, and rolled at Blaze. "Use quick attack to dodge it." I told Blaze. He ran at a fast speed, out of the way of geodude. "Now use ember." I told Blaze. Blaze shot embers at geodude, but they just bounced off it.

"Geodude use tackle." Roxanne told it. Geodude rammed into Blaze, sending him flying. "Blaze! Get up, and use quick attack." I called out. "Use rollout once more." Roxanne told geodude. Blaze got up, and ran at geodude, while geodude curled up into a ball, and rolled at Blaze again.

They rammed into each other, and sent each other flying back. "Blaze can you keep going?" I asked him. "Torchic." he said, getting back up. "Great. Now use peck, and quick attack at the same time." I said, using the same strategy as pinkie had.

"Geodude use defense curl." Roxanne called to her pokemon. Blaze's beak glowed, and he ran at geodude, who had curled up into a ball to strengthen it's defenses. Blaze rammed into it, and sent it flying back, unconscious. "Geodude!" Roxanne called out.

"Yeah!" I cheered. "It's not over yet." said Roxanne, returning her geodude to it's pokeball. "Let's see how you do against my other pokemon. Go nosepass." she called out, throwing her pokeball into the air, releasing her nosepass.

"What's that?" asked Twilight, pointing her pokedex at it. "Nosepass. When endangered it may protect itself by raising its magnetism, and drawing iron objects to its body." the pokedex said. "Alright then. Let's go." I said.
